When God said no I asked God to take away my pride and God said no
He said it was not for him to take away but for me to give up
I asked God to make my handicapped child whole and God said no
He said her spirit is whole her body temporary
I asked God to grant me patience and God said no
He said that patience is a by-product of suffering, if it is granted it is earned
I asked God to give me happiness and God said no
He said he gives blessings, happiness is up to me
I asked God to make my spirit grow and God said no
He said I must grow on my own
But he will prune me to make me faithful
I asked God to spare me pain and God said no
He said sufferings draws you apart from worldly cares and brings you close to me
I asked God if he loved me and God said yes
He gave me His only son who died for me, and I will be in heaven someday because I believe.
I asked God to help me love my neighbor as much as He loves me,
and God said Ah finally you have the idea!

well, i am not getting my raise anymore....how poopy is that? my hopes were up high then got shot back down. its ok, i am going to be getting my own cubicle and own phone line pretty soon. thats pretty cool for just being an intern. they just did lay-offs this past week and there was about a 20% cut of the whole company. so there isnt really any new funds to go support my raise. i just have to keep on waiting. but i am also going to be looking for a new job, but not sure about this job market, i still hear its pretty bad. =(
